Teeth Whitening

As you age, coffee, wine, tobacco products, and other factors contribute to the staining and dulling of your teeth. To restore a bright, white color to your smile, consider any one of the teeth whitening services at our Millburn, New Jersey dental practice. At Beautiful Smiles by Dr. Harold A. Pollack, we offer both take-home and in-office teeth whitening solutions.

In-office Teeth Whitening with BriteSmile®

The most effective of the teeth whitening procedures available at our Millburn, New Jersey location is our in-office teeth whitening treatment using BriteSmile®. During a process that takes approximately one hour, a whitening gel is placed on your teeth. As you relax, a blue light activates the whitening power of the gel. At the end of the relatively quick and simple teeth whitening process, your teeth may be up to 14 shades brighter (with the average increase of over 9 shades). This teeth whitening procedure at our New Jersey practice can tends to produce more dramatic and longer lasting results than at-home treatments.

Professional Teeth Whitening from the Comfort of Home

If you prefer the privacy of your home to a dentist's office, we offer two methods of at-home teeth whitening treatments at the Millburn, New Jersey practice of Dr. Harold A. Pollack. In both at-home methods, you would apply a teeth whitening solution to your teeth using a tray. One of the at-home teeth whitening options requires wearing the tray for an hour each day while the other options requires you wear the tray overnight. Whichever method you choose, it is important to follow Dr. Pollack's instructions and to follow up with him regarding the teeth whitening treatment.

Porcelain Veneers

Both porcelain veneers and dental bonding are used to correct chipped, cracked, and discolored teeth. However, in some circumstances dental bonding just isn't enough, which makes porcelain veneers an excellent option. Unlike dental bonding, porcelain veneers also have the ability to quickly and easily straighten the appearance of your teeth.

Porcelain veneers, available at our Millburn, New Jersey practice, are thin shells of translucent porcelain, which are attached to the front of your teeth. When properly applied by an experienced cosmetic dentist like Dr. Harold Pollack, porcelain veneers can produce a brighter, straighter, natural smile.

One of the advantages of porcelain veneers is natural looking results. Because of the way the porcelain material reflects light, porcelain veneers create the same luster of natural teeth.

Another advantage of porcelain veneers is their ability to resist stains. This characteristic of the veneers is very appealing to patients who drink coffee, tea, or red wine, as well as patients who smoke, since other material used in cosmetic dentistry procedures can become discolored over time.

Overall, patients who received porcelain veneers from our Millburn, New Jersey practice report ed being very satisfied with the whiteness, shape, and feel that the porcelain veneers gave them - many even recommend porcelain veneers to their friends.

Tooth-colored Fillings

Tooth-colored fillings are made of a composite specifically designed to match the shade and color of your existing teeth. Done right, composite fillings are virtually indistinguishable from your natural tooth material, and they provide an excellent compliment to other cosmetic dental work.

Dental Bonding

For teeth that are chipped, discolored, cracked or misshapen, dental bonding provides an excellent solution and, for smaller problem areas, may be an alternative to porcelain veneers. Painted directly onto the surface of your existing teeth, bonding covers many dental imperfections easily and efficiently. Bonding is versatile, adaptable and highly-functional, and it can be used in many situations. If you are trying to decide between dental bonding and porcelain veneers, contact our New Jersey practice today for a consultation with Dr. Harold Pollack.

All-porcelain Crowns

Teeth that cannot be saved with a simple filling must receive a dental crown. Dental crowns fit snugly over an existing tooth, providing aesthetic beauty while protecting the remaining tooth material from decay. Like porcelain veneers, dental crowns are made from high-quality porcelain, which gives your teeth a healthy glow, mirroring how your natural teeth react to sunlight. In fact, most people won't even know you've had work done.

Porcelain and Composite Inlays and Onlays

While inlays and onlays are typically used in restorative work, we are happy to inform our patients that most dental work can look great, as well as function properly. Inlays and onlays are durable, look exactly like natural teeth, and provide much more strength than bonding or filling materials.
